The recommended point of departure is the entrance of Isola Sant’Antonio nature oasis; from there, go along the Po bank towards the confluence with the Scrivia. Then change direction and go south along the left bank of the stream that descends from the Apennine. When you leave the stream bank, go west across vegetable fields to the intersection with Province Road 88.
Turn left on Province Road 88 and follow it for about one kilometre, to the intersection with Province Road 85 Castelnuovo Scriva-Sale. Cross the road and turn left towards the bridge (keep carefully to the right on the bridge, as the traffic may be heavy). After a roundabout turn right to the Scrivia banks, and follow the signs to the nature reserve.
